Just a Conservative musing, raving, and joking

Hi-jack the “Change-O-Meter”

Karen Shih, over at Slate.com, has a cute way of tracking just how far Left Il Duce takes the country. It’s called the “Change-O-Meter,” a running scale scoring the President’s performance (from their standard) on a scale of zero to one-hundred. Currently, he’s running a paltry 12, which shows he’s not making his peeps too happy.

Here is a tiny section revealing their obtuse scoring system (you can read the whole piece here):

The EPA, meanwhile, is planning to establish a national system for reporting greenhouse-gas emissions, a system that would include up to 90 percent of the country’s output. The program was drafted during the Bush administration but blocked by the White House budget office at the time—still, better late than never. This move could be the first step in creating an emissions cap to help curb global warming, for which the ‘Meter awards 25 points.

I say we (and by we, I mean someone with more web technical skill than I) hi-jack this idea for our own ends. A Fascist Meter. Anyone want to take a stab at this? Don’t be shy.
